    The correct answer is letter "D": deduction from total paid-in capital and retained earnings.

    Explanation:

    Treasury stock is a company's own stock that is held in its treasury for later use. Often a company purchases its treasury stock on the open market. Treasury stock may also exist because the issuing company did not sell all of its outstanding shares. Treasury stock is reported in the stockholder's equity section of the balance sheet or with the deduction from total paid-in capital and retained earnings.
